TREE FELLER-CHIPPER

摘要

Feller-chipper for harvesting forests, primarily planted forests and particularly energy plantations, comprising a mobile frame structure or a frame structure mounted on a tractor, and a guiding element attached to the frame structure. The machine further comprises a cutting unit coacting with the guiding element. The machine still further comprises a hauling-in and feeding unit adapted for conveying the tree from the cutting unit to the chipper unit, and further comprising a tangentially attached discharge chute connected to the chipper disc. The invention is essentially characterised by that the hauling-in and feeding unit consists of a hauling-in portion extending over the saw discs (9), the hauling-in portion being adapted for keeping the trees (20) in upright position and conveying them to the chipper unit.
